The man beside Lily who was wearing a suit and leather shoes had perfect manners.
Lily looked a little miserable as she forced a smile on her face. However, she still stood beside the man, accompanying him.
The man was Charles Luke, and to Samantha, he was the best son-in-law candidate.
Lily had countless admirers, but Charles was the one Samantha preferred most. Not only did he look smart, but Charles was a senior manager in the Audi Corporation. He was the Regional Manager of Donghai City, and a perfect match with Samantha’s daughter, unlike Darryl who looked low class.
“Manager Luke.”
At that moment, the lady in front of Darryl quickly rushed forward with a huge smile, and greeted him passionately.
Earlier, the lady's face looked disgusted when she saw Darryl, but now, her reaction was the complete opposite.
Charles nodded and asked, “Has the President of Platinum Corporation arrived yet?”
The lady quickly replied, “Not yet. I have been waiting at the main lobby, but no car drove by.”
Charles did not question further but looked down at Lily with a smile and said,” Let’s wait in the office then.”
Lily was distracted, and she just mumbled without speaking. Even though Samantha wished to make Charles her son-in-law, Lily was unwilling to interact with Charles. She was not here for a date today.
Charles Luke mentioned that he knew the president of Platinum Corporation.
She was interested in the President of the Platinum Corporation, as the President said that he recognized Lily from the Lyndon family.
However, Lily was unaware that Charles did not know the President of Platinum Corporation at all!
Recently, both Audi and Platinum Corporation collaborated to co-sponsor the “Superstar” program. The headquarters delegated Charles to be in charge of signing the contract with Platinum Corporation, thus they would have naturally met. Charles bragged to Lily about how widely connected he was. It was a complete show off, intended to raise his own status.
At that moment, Darryl grinned. He then walked over.
Manager Luke? Audi Corporation informed him that the person in charge of the collaboration was Manager Luke.
Seeing Darryl approaching, the female receptionist frowned and said annoyingly, “Hey! Why are you still here?”
Charles glared at Darryl and felt that the loser was here to gain exposure, so he did not really care. He said to the lady, “When the President of Platinum Corporation arrives to discuss our collaboration, do not allow these people of no relevance to come in. What if they dirty his car?”
